Another solution to the shot shell problem for 2-1/2" or 2-9/16" shotgun chambers is to order a box of brass hulls from Cabela's or Ballistic Products (they're 2-1/2"), get the wads from BP or Buffalo Arms, and load old-fashioned conventional shells, either blackpowder or smokeless. Also, for a rifle reloader, the 6.5x57R rifle brass opens up to 7mm quite easily with just a pass from the expander ball. I think 7x57R's will open up to 8mm, also, but might have to be full-length resized to go from 8 back to 7. Once fired, they'll only have to be neck-sized when reloaded as long as you only have one rifle of that caliber. One more possibility for the shotgun: pick up a Savage Four-Tenner on Ebay or GB and shoot 3" 410's; they work and pattern well even in Damascus barrels. These aren't guns that get used for extensive trap-shooting or long stays at the rifle range, so reloading for them is more an amusing exercise than a lengthy chore; a few rounds of shotgun shells, a few for the rifle, maybe a few special plinker rifle rounds for small game, and you're set for the whole season. Enjoy!
